Really love your videos Christian, they've been a great resource as I have found myself in lighting for the past year or so. Missed you in DC, or rather suspect you weren't at the LTC after-party. Got to meet Scott and watch him DJ as well haha, great crew on that tour. Would be interested in some theory focused content from you, going into some of the hows and whys of your lighting decisions during a show. Maybe get a rundown of your programming essentials and favorite go-to techniques. Keep it up dude 👊

Hi Christian really love the work you are doing. I am a LT from old school analog. Did not get chance to work with a digital board and moving lights till 2002 when the band i came to America in 1975 got back together after splitting up in 1979. Did a few shows and had a in house system in a theatre in NJ. Had a day job. Then the band got together in 2002 for Nearfest in NJ Trenton I had not done lights for Twenty four years. So had the butterflies especialy when i got up to the lighting desk and there it was. A digital board i did not no nothing about this kind of lighting system and another thing was we were the headliner for this festival. And we were also doing a video for later release. After that we did a few tours of Europe then the band split up six years later. Now the band is back together with a few different players i look forward to doing the gigs. We do not carry our own light like we did in the 70s where we had two semis full. we carry our own liquid light show and video we are using lights what ever is available in the theatre we are playing I am. 72 year old and love it wish i new all about digital and led lighting and the boards of today. the band i am with and been with since 1974 is called NEKTAR we have a lightshow as well as lighting they Have about 20 albums and a few dvds I wish you all the best and keep up the good work yours.

I am a production manager for a big German full production company, doing mostly industry shows. Before I've been a light tech and OP. Good point, I always bring a spare set of glasses on every non-local national production that's longer than three days and every international production. Something I've learned the hard way is to always have a spare set of clothes (boxers, socks, t-shirt) when traveling with more than a carry-on. Had my luggage delayed on more than one occasion and it's not a great feeling to wear the same clothes on production as I've worn during traveling. Also in regards of fallback plans, all our production relevant docs such as CAD files or other stuff, copies of quotations etc. is on our company's server, usually also important emails so that if one of us ever can't make it and there's no way of at least a small briefing, they can just go through it and find everything they need. It also helps that in our office we are four project managers and we always kind of know what the other guys are working on, so taking over is even easier. As my main tools now are my laptop and phone I make sure to have everything from the server synched offline to my laptop and a USB drive and have two powerbanks for my phones. I also have small everyday needs distributed around my luggage, backpack and person, such as pain killers, tiny flash lights, pens and other bits and bobs.

USB drives should also go in a Peli micro case. I use the Peli 1020 with a USB drive for each console type I use, and I have a duplicate case of USBs. I also really like nodes that support DMX backup by sending data backwards from a backup node. Only ever use managed network switches so you can have a redundant path with RSTP or equivalent.

Found out about this like 10 minutes before the show and tried my best to repair it all but it was the worst... Learned a lot from that - now always bringing a backup and I will never overwrite a show file right before the show again.

Trippy.. Saw this video right when I needed to. I have had a decline in my vision over the last 2 years and I just got glasses yesterday. My visions not to bad, like I can't read small to medium print on the tv 3-4 meters away and a stage from FOH is pretty fuzzy, maybe half as bad as your simulation. I do projection mapping for mainly psytrance and other psychedelic music gigs. My vision deteriation had me depressed for a while in a 'How ironic, the visuals/lighting guy can't see' sort of way... Knowing that someone at your level with way worse vision then mine (nice one on the simulation btw) still plows forward with spectacular results, really raised my spirits a lot! :) I can't explain why it's bumbed me out so much when there is a simple fix (glasses/contacts). You ever feel something like that? It's like I was beating myself up over the irony of the situation.. I'm prone to that sort of thinking, i'm one of those 'you can't hurt me more then I hurt myself' types lol Anyways, thanks for the energy lift and keep doing what you're doing man :)

I work in theatre, so mildly different backups, but some similarities. If I can get my hands on a second script (As I work musicals, those are generally quite controlled), I will hard duplicate out my cues from one to another. Multiple pencils and pens in different pockets of my bag in the event a pocket splits etc. I have multiple backups of my show files in multiple locations. Also earplugs! I always try to have at least one form of ear protection with me at all times, in the event it is needed. I also like to have a plan in the event a console dies, about what to do to swap over. Due to space limitations, I cannot have it setup and able to swap during a show, but having thought about what it would take to readdress lights and such to get a basic plot running on a simple desk is something I keep in my mind as a disaster level plan B.
